The Trials of Sirius Crewe (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Can a privileged prince survive reality?

Sirius Crewe leads a fairytale existence: indulged by an adoring father, heir to a scandalously large fortune, and with a mastery of magic unheard of in a boy his age. His enrolment at the Minchin Academy should assure his future by introducing him to all the right people in London's magical society. Instead, Sirius faces reality for the first time in his sheltered existence.

The insolent hall boy completely rebuffs Sirius' attempts at friendship. The brilliant scholarship student makes it a personal mission to undermine every notion of superiority Sirius possesses, while the kindness of the school dunce challenges all Sirius' assumptions about value. Worse yet: his father's violent death leaves Sirius entirely at the mercy of a headmaster who hates him.

Stripped of his fortune and with doubts cast on his magical legitimacy, Sirius must stand on his own. Grappling with unimagined hardship, he sustains himself with memories of what was. Can a life built on a fiction hold up against harsh reality-or is Sirius living unhappily ever after?

Set in the same universe as Drake LaMarque's Misselthwaite books, The Trials of Sirius Crewe is a LGBTQ+ romantasy nod to The Little Princess.
